The former US president explained why he believes a war between China and Taiwan is inevitable.
In light of his recent declaration that a war between China and Taiwan will be inevitable, former US President Donald Trump has explained why he believes this. According to Trump, the issue is not Beijing’s belligerence or Taiwan’s efforts to maintain its sovereignty, but the fact that China and Taiwan are being pressured to do so in Washington.
According to Trump, if he remained in power in the United States, then a conflict in Ukraine would be unlikely, however, with the current US authorities, China and Taiwan may plunge into war. Trump explained that Washington and Nancy Pelosi, who could not agree on refusing to visit the island, are responsible for the current tensions.
“We can get into World War III because we are led by incompetent people,” Trump explained in a statement.
Such a statement by Trump precisely explains the current tensions between Taiwan and China, after Beijing asked the United States to cancel Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, while Washington could not take all possible measures to prevent Pelosi and forbid her to visit the island.
“If there is no influence in Washington, then conflict may indeed be inevitable. Trump is absolutely right here. The responsibility certainly rests with the “softness” of the American authorities. By the way, such a conflict is possible not only between Taiwan and China, but also in almost any other part of the world where there are disputed territories, for example, between China and Japan, Serbia and Kosovo, Azerbaijan and Armenia, etc. “, – notes the analyst.
